Legal Considerations for Supporting Students Eligible for Special Education or Section 504 During a Pandemic
Domain 10: Legal, Ethical, and Professional Practice
Providing educational services to students with disabilities who are eligible for services under either the IDEA or Section 504 is a challenge during the Covid-19 pandemic. Nonetheless, the Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) and the Office of Civil Rights in the U.S. Department of Education are clear school districts must continue to provide a free appropriate public education (FAPE) consistent with the need to protect the health and safety of students with disabilities, administrators, related service personnel and teachers who are providing education, specialized instruction, and related services. During the pandemic schools might not be able to provide certain in-person services. However, districts must make every effort to provide special education and related services to the child in accordance with the IEPs or 504 plans. In this webinar, we will (a) present OSEP and OCR policies and guidance on meeting the FAPE requirements of IDEA and Section 504, (b), provide updates on recent case law relating to implementing educational programs for students with disabilities, (c) examine selected COVID-19 polices from the various states, and (d) offer free resources for educators on delivering special education services during the pandemic.
Learner Objectives: This session helps participants: 1. Have a clear understanding of FAPE requirements. 2. Understand the latest case law on special education. 3. Be able to list resources for providing special education services.
